I want to finish what I started for once I want to love something more than a month I want to bask in the common sense That common sense isn't what I've got I want a memory that I can re-do I want an enemy that trusts me too I wanna good old day today that fades Into night just like the good days do I'll be leaving room Looking back less at the blues What a selfish thing to do But a self-help book It told me to Move along Nothing to see if it's already done While we're young Get on with it whatever it is son I want a comeback I can use like a knife I want a friendship that is hard to define I want a machine to fly through time Give me a Christmas list of an only child I want to stop biting my nails Don't want to pay full price the day before the sale I want to know where my energy goes and that my time is mine To find what I will I'll be leaving room Looking back less at the blues What a selfish thing to do But a self-help book It told me to Move along Nothing to see if it's already done While we're young Get on with it whatever it is son Move along Nothing to see if it's already done While we're young Get on with it whatever it is son Son
